I don't know what happend, sounds strange. I always use IDE disks within
VMware, but that's more a personal opinion.

Quick workaround:

Reboot. Boot from the installation CDrom and on the command prompt type:

boot: Linux root=/dev/sda1

After finishing the installation, run lilo manually. /etc/lilo should have
lines like

boot=/dev/sda
root=/dev/sda1
